QUATERNARY SALTS OF PARA-DIALKYLAMINO BENZAMIDE DERIVATIVES

Abstract: This invention relates to non-hydrolyzable, non-irritating, hair, skin and textile substantive quaternary ammonium salts of a para-dialkylamino benzamide having formula (I) wherein R' and R'' are each selected from the group of C1 to C2 alkyl; n is an integer having a value of from 2 to 6; R is an alkyl radical having from 1 to 30 carbon atoms; R1 and R2 are each selected from the group of C1 to C4 alkyl, hydrogen and, alternatively, R1 and R2, together with the attached cationic nitrogen atom can form a 5 to 6-membered heterocyclic ring selected from the group (a, b, c, d, e, f and g) and X is an anion. These benzamide derivatives are active sunscreening agents which are usefully employed at a concentration of from about 0.5 to about 10 wt. % in a formulation requiring protection against the harmful effects of sunlight, such as skin burn, hair damage, color fading, etc.

Description: QUATERNARY SALTS OF PARA-DIALKYLAMINO BENZAMIDE DERIVATIVES In one aspect the present invention relates to novel substantive compounds for skin, hair, paints, textiles and fibers of wool, cotton, silk and synthetics which provide protection from the undesirable affects of sunlight. In another aspect the invention relates to the use of such compounds as sunscreens in personal care or in other formulations. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION In addition to the recognized detrimental affects of sunlight on printed or colored fabrics and painted surfaces, human hair damage caused by sunlight in the ultraviolet spectrum is more severe than that resulting from all other factors such as weather, wind, atmospheric pollution, salt water, chlorinated water, perming, coloring, bleaching and improperly applied or repetitive treatments. Notwithstanding the need for effective sunscreens, none have been developed which provide desired hair substantivity while avoiding other deleterious changes in structure, brittleness, hair softness and the like. Prior attempts to remedy these problems have proven unsatisfactory. For example, U.S. patents 3,879,443; 3,878,229; 4,069,309 and 4,680,144 disclose various sunscreens dependent on an ester functionality. However, these compounds tend to be hydrolytically unstable to the extent that the formulator must avoid hydrolysis conditions during formulation. Also, since these esters lack hydrogen bonding capability with skin protein or hair keratin, they are deficient in hair substantivity. U.S. Patent 4,256,664 proposes several p-substituted aromatic amines or nitro containing sunscreens having an amide functionality and optionally containing a hydroxy substituent. However, the primary amines of this patent oxidize rapidly in air, thereby altering desired hair color and, in some instances, form nitroso amines which are known carcinogens. Addition¬ ally, the primary amines and nitro compounds are recognized skin irritants. Further, the amine compounds are subject to intermolecular and solvent hydrogen bonding which characteristic causes a significant shift in UV maxima absorption and reduces absorption in the desired spectrum range. M. F. Saettone et al. in THE INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF COSMETIC SCIENCE, Vol. 8, 9-25, 1986, describes types of amido quaternaries based on salicyclic and cinnamiσ acids. The salicylamides are ortho substituted with spatial arrangements permitting internal molecular hydrogen bonding. The ortho relationship of the phenolic group to the bulky amide group causes crowding and stress within the molecule. To counter this steric effect, the groups which deviate slightly from planarity are present. However, any minor deviation from planarity causes a reduction in the extinction coefficient and hence a corresponding reduction in the efficacy of protection against harmful sun rays. On the other hand, cinna oylamides have additional unsaturation and conjugation with respect to both the aromatic ring and the carbonyl group. This structure permits electron delocalization to take place within the molecule; but, although the energy corresponding to this electron transition corresponds to a desired wavelength of about 305 ran, the molar extinction coefficient is materially lower than that for the corresponding para-dimethylamino carbonyl analog. Finally, the cinnamoyl compounds are subject to cis-trans isomerization as well as to polymerization, i.e. characteristics to be avoided for effective sunscreens. Still another patent, U.S. 4,061,730, seeks to remedy the above problems by the use of quaternized benzylidene camphor sunscreens. However, since quaternization eliminates conjugation in the compound, the sun protection capability is significantly reduced. From the above discussion, it will be appreciated that the discovery of a commercially viable and hair substantive sunscreen is remote. Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide an effective, non-irritating sunscreening agent which is not subject to hydrolysis, and which has high substrate substantivity. Another object of the invention resides in the synthesis of said sunscreening agent. Still another object is to provide a novel water insoluble sunscreening agent for extended use in hair care. These and other objects will become apparent from the following description and disclosure. THE INVENTION In accordance with the present invention, a substantially water insoluble, non-irritating and hydrolysis resistant cationic sunscreening agent is provided which possesses high molecular planarity and which is easily incorporated into commercial formulations to provide stable compositions. The present benzamide derivatives can be employed to prevent color alteration in paints or painted substrates, e.g. automotive vehicles and mono or multi colored textile fabrics, and the like. Because of their high hair, skin and wool substantivity, the present compounds are particularly useful in cosmetic applications, as in hair conditioning shampoos, silicone containing softeners, hair conditioners and rinses, styling mousses, gels or lotions, hair sprays, hair dyes and bleaching compositions. Since the present compounds interact with hair protein, they provide UV protection and conditioning properties long after hair treatment. Beneficial cosmetic applications also include their compatability and easy incorporation into skin care compositions, such as sun protection creams and lotions to inhibit skin ageing, wrinkle formation, erythema and carcinogenesis as well as in nail polish, lipstick, rouge or make-up bases. The benzamide derivatives of this invention also reduce fading of natural and synthetic dyes and minimize or eliminate photodegradation in dyed and undyed cotton, linen, silk and wool fabrics as well as color alteration in paints and painted surfaces exposed to climatic conditions as in automotive and house paints. The non-hydrolyzable, non-irritating, substantive derivatives of this invention are quaternary ammonium salts of a para-dialkylamino benzamide compound having the formula | , wherein R' and R" are each selected from the group of C α to C 2 alkyl; n is an integer having a value of from 2 to 6; R is a linear, branched or cyclic alkyl radical having from 1 to 30 carbon atoms; R^ and R 2 are each selected from the group of c λ to C 4 alkyl, hydrogen and, alternatively, R x and R 2 , together with the attached cationic nitrogen atom can form a 5 to 6-membered heterocyclic ring selected from the group of and X is an anion, preferably selected from the group of chloride, bromide, sulfate, sulfonate, haloacetal and aryl sulfonates. Of the above benzamide compounds, preferred are those wherein n has a value of 2 to 4; R is alkyl having 12 to 18 carbon atoms and x and R 2 are each alkyl having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms. It is to be understood that mixtures of the present benz mides can be employed in a composition to provide combined UV protection. The present compounds are unique in that they absorb UV in wavelengths of from about 280 to about 330 nm and possess a molecular extinction coefficient of up to about 30,000. The present compounds are generally compatible with any composition requiring UV protection and can be added in an effective amount of between about 0.5 and about 10 wt. %, preferably between about 1 and about 3 wt. %, based on total composition. Solutions of the present compounds are also usefully applied as a separate coating over a treated substrate. For example, a vehicle or aircraft can be sprayed or brushed, with a 2 to 10% solution of the present compound dissolved in a suitable solvent such as fatty alcohols, e.g. octyldodecanol, isocetyl alcohol, alkyl lactates containing 12 to 18 carbon atoms, 2-ethylhexyl p-dimethylamino benzoate (Padimate 0) , etc. The compound can also be pressed into a cosmetic cake as in a cake powder for application to the skin. The benzamides of the present invention are easily synthesized according to the following two-stage reaction 1. 2. C0NH (CH 2 ) n N + quaternizing agent > _ wherein A is C-_ to C 8 alkyl and R 3 is halo or an organic moiety, e.g. aryl such as tolyl. Stage 1 of the reaction is carried out at a temperature of between about 110° and about 180°C. , preferably under reflux conditions for continuous removal of the alkanol by-product. The reaction of the aminobenzoate with diamine is conducted in the presence of a base catalyst such as dimethyl formamide, triethanol amine, N-methyl-morpholine, hexamethylene tetraamine, dimethylamino-2-hydroxy propane, 2,4,6-tris(dimethyl- aminomethyl)phenol, potassium t-butoxide, KOH, NaOH, iUBSTlTUTE SHEET RULE 26 NaOCH 3 , NaOC 2 H 5 and the like. Between about 0.5 and about 24 hours, in the presence of from about 0.5 to about 2 weight % of the base catalyst, is sufficient to complete the reaction to the aminobenzamide product in a high yield greater than 96%. Preferred conditions for this stage of the reaction include a temperature of from about 120° to about 170°C. for a period of between about 1 and about 2 hours. The aminobenzoate and diamine can be reacted as a melt or in a 15-50%, preferably a 20-30%, solids solution or emulsion in a suitable liquid medium provided by, e.g. acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, ethyl acetate, cyclohexane, octane, xylene, toluene, etc. and mixtures thereof. Also, the reaction can be effected under a pressure sufficient to maintain a liquid phase when needed. The quaternization stage is carried out at a temperature of between about 70° and about 140°C, preferably between 100° and 130°C. , and is completed within a period of from about 10 minutes to about 24 hours, more often 1 to 6 hours, after which the product can be recovered by crystallization, from ethyl acetate or a similar solvent. Although the product can be recovered in crystalline form, these crystals may contain up to 10 wt.% water, more desirably between about 1 and about 8 wt.% water. The quaternizing agents employed in the present invention include C λ to C 30 alkyl- halide, sulfate, sulfonate, acetal and aryl sulfonates, e.g. p-tolyl sulfonate. The alkyl moiety of the quaternizing agent can be substituted with halogen and can be branched or linear. Preferred quaternizing agents are those containing from 12 to 20 carbon atoms in the alkyl moiety. In the above reactions, equimolar amounts of the reacting species are preferred; however, ratios of from about 1:2 to about 2:1 may be employed in the second stage reaction. Advantages of the present sunscreening agents are derived from the aromatic -N(R) 2 group, which unlike -NH , is stable, is not sensitive to pH changes present in various formulations, and is not oxidized in air. The substitution of -N(R) 2 in the para-position on the phenyl ring also eliminates H bonding with protic solvents which characterize the ortho -OH and -NH 2 phenyl substitutions of other sunscreens while the replacement of the ester linkage found in prior compounds with an amide linkage provides an additional binding site for the hair protein (keratin) through H-bonding. The presence of the quaternary a ine group provides the salt linkage through the electrovalent union of the side chain acid keratin residues thereby imparting conditioning properties. All of the above factors in combination provide the synergistic effects and benefits of the present sunscreens. Formulations containing the present quaternized amino-benzamide compounds can be used in pump or aerosol sprays. The cosmetic formulations incorporating the present sunscreens generally include between about 40 and about 90 wt. % of a carrier or propellant such as deionized water, alcohol, isobutane or propane, etc., between about 10 and about 40 wt. % of a surfactant or surfactant mixture such as sodium and/or ammonium, lauryl sulfate, sodium laureth sulfate etc., and fragrance and/or coloring agent as desired. These formulations may optionally contain between about 5 and about 50 % of one or more inert components including a film forming polymer such as a C λ to C ester of a methyl vinyl ether/ aleic anhydride copolymer, a vinyl pyrrolidone/vinyl acetate copolymer, etc.; a preservative such as bronopol, an ester of p-hydroxybenzoic acid, 2-methyl-3(2H) isothiazolone, a mixture of methyl and propyl paraben, dimethyl-5,5- dimethylhydantoin, Germall® 115, imidazolidinyl urea, etc.; a seguestrant, and an antistatic agent.

The charged reactor was flushed with dry nitrogen for 15 minutes at ambient temperature and was then heated to 150°C. under vigorous stirring. After about 15 minutes accumulation of distillate, the reactor temperature was gradually increased to 180'C. in 5° increments over a period of 1 hour and was then maintained at 180°C. for an additional hour, whereupon a sample of the product, analyzed by glass chromatography (GC) indicated 99+% conversion of the ester. The resulting mixture was then cooled to 95°C. and washed twice with 200 ml of hot water after which the aqueous phase was cooled to room temperature and precipitated crystals recovered by filtration. These crystals were then combined with the organic phase in the reactor. A vacuum of about 10-20 mm Hg was then applied to the product in the reactor which was heated to 90-95°C. for 30 minutes. The resulting distillate containing water and light products was discarded. The residue was cooled to room temperature and was identified by elemental analysis, ^Η and 13 NMR, and FTIR spectra, as N-(3-dimethylamino- propyl)-p-dimethylaminobenzamide. The product yield was 205 g (96.9% of theoretical based on ethyl-p-dimethylamino-benzoate) .

The charged reactor was flushed with dry nitrogen for 15 minutes at ambient temperature and was then heated to 150°C. under vigorous stirring. After about 15 minutes accumulation of distillate, the reactor temperature was gradually increased to 170°C. in 5° increments over a period of 1 hour and was then maintained at 170°C. for a 23 additional hours.

These were compared with benzylidene camphor para-toluene sulfonate (A) and 4-[(2- oxo-3-bornylidene)methyl]-phenyldimethyldodecylammonium para-toluene sulfonate (b) as disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 4,061,730 and octyl-para-dimethylamino benzoate (C) . The test samples were prepared with 1 gram of human hair in a solution of 0.01% in water or iso- propanol-water and using 50 ml of total solution. After standing for 2 minutes the hair was removed from the solution. The substantivity of a sunscreening agent is determined in mg. of sunscreen absorbed/gram of hair, by substracting the absorbance at the maximum peak between 300 and 320 nm before and after dipping the hair in the solution containing the sunscreen. The results are as shown in Table I.

Comparative B is 2-hydroxy-4-met__oxy benzophenone-5- sulfuric acid neutralized with NaOH. EXAMPLE 17 Demonstration of Hair Fading Reduction/Elimination In order to demonstrate the effectiveness of the present compounds in reducing or elimination of the fading of dyed human hair, the following tests were carried out. Compounds of Examples 2, 4 and 11 were selected for this study and octyl-p-dimethylamino- benzoate (C) was used as a comparative sunscreen. The test samples were prepared with 1 gram of dyed human hair in a solution (50 ml) of 0.01% in water or isopropanol-water. After standing for 10 minutes the hair was removed from the solution, one half was air dried, and the other half was rinsed for 5 minutes in tap water and then dried. Untreated dyed human hair was used as a control. All test samples were irradiated with a Hanovia Ultra Violet Lamp containing a Corex D filter. It was found that at 72 hours, significant fading in both the octyl-p-dimethylaminobenzoate and control samples occurred. No fading of hair in the samples containing the sunscreens of Examples 2, 4 and 13 took place. The rinsed samples containing 2, 4 and 13 sunscreens also retained 60 to 80% of their fade resistance. EXAMPLE 18 Demonstration of Hair Protection Against Sun Damage The purpose of this study was to assess the ability of the products of this invention (Examples 2 and 4) to reduce the amount of ultraviolet light-induced damage to the hair, as measured by the change in fluorescence of mercurochrome-dyed hair samples. For this study, the sunscreen compounds were each dissolved in lauryl lactate (Ceraphyl 31) at 1 and 2% (W/W) level concentration. The procedure followed in this study involves forming a base stain solution 1% mercurochrome in 6M urea containing 0.5% of aqueous Triton X-100* (Q.S. to 100 ml) . Degreased hair swatches are taken from 10 female subjects, 7 of which are permed or colored hair and 3 of which are virgin hair. The hair is cut 1/4" from the scalp and the proximal 3" used for study. A first portion of the hair strands from each subject is dipped into the base stain solution to which the sunscreen solution has been added. A second equal portion of the hair strands from each subject is dipped into the base stain solution without addition of the sunscreen solution and the first and second portions are irradiated. Finally, a third equal portion of the hair strands from each subject is untreated and used as an absolute control to determine the amount of fluorescence inherent in the hair. Measurement of fluoroescence is carried out by mounting three hair strands of a given sample on a microscope slide cross section. A fluorescence microscope Zeiss 2FL fitted with a photomultiplier tube (PMT) EM1#9798E and a filter measures fluorescence of the strands under -600 volts supplied by a Harrison 6515A DC supplier. The results of these tests are reported in the following Table II. * octylphenoxy octaoxahexacosan-1-ol TABLE II Fluorescence Units (Average % Decrease in of 10 Sample Subjects, Fluorescence and Control Hair samples treated with 16.22 55. 61 Sunscreen of Example 2 (1% soln) Hair samples treated with 18.30 51.92 Sunscreen of Example 4 (1% soln) Hair samples treated with 12.10 68.71 CD Sunscreen of Example 2 (2% soln) Hair samples treated with 13.55 64 .91 Sunscreen of Example 4 (2% soln) CO Hair samples in Ceraphyl 31 44.89 30.46 solution irradiated without sunscreen Hair samples irradiated in the 38.71 25.0 absence of Ceraphyl 31 and/or s sunscreen The following represent some other formulations using the sunscreen agents of this invention and illustrate their compatability with a variety of components conventionally employed in such compositions.
